Robin van Hontem Creates Nylon Dancing Designs

Created by Robin van Hontem, these Dancing Vases were designed based on the movement of a spinning top.

Robin van Hontem's Dancing Vases series include 5 vases each representing a stage of a top's deceleration including turning fast, losing speed, and the final drop down.

Each vase in Robin van Hontem's Dancing Vases series is a perfect white color and made through a rapid prototyping process out of nylon.

Implications - In a society that places much importance on individuality, North American consumers are finding it difficult to stand out from their peers considering the amount of similar products that are on the market. As such, designers are turning to the whimsical to satiate consumer demand for the unique. Marketers can similarly garner the attention of the general public by incorporating fantastical elements into their campaigns.
